I don't know how you guys feel about this game in it's current state, but I don't think I will download any of the future updates anymore. I might play the fully released game, but I guess we are looking at like a 10+ years development time.
You might think so, but even on the discord channel for the game there are a couple mincing inquiries and radio silence. There's just... nothing going on at all on any front.
When people ask, even in the nicest way it gets ignored. Just dont think people find it worth risking a ban over asking. Which is fucking mental. Imagine fostering such a relation to your paying patreons. Asking for product they love = Ban OMEGALUL.
Absolutely, it's pretty evident in how in gameplay elements were just abandoned once she left. Gold, stamina, freedom/slave stat, raiding mechanic, combat stats (whens the last time there was even a combat encounter in the game? 2 years?) They said they tried to make a new gameplay system with the bar scene (and all of those variations nomo made that we've haven't got to see) but it seems they failed miserably at that.
Can we get the screenshots of what they are saying in the game thread on the discord, please? Just out of curiosity.

From what I can comprehend from this post, nothing. I guess patreons are asking about the update but they are not giving them an answer, radio silence on all fronts, patreon, discord, and their blog. I guess the news will be out soon. "We have decided that KOD is not worth putting in the effort blah blah blah, and we don't want to keep the patreons waiting/ waste their money blah,blah,blah so, we are going to start a new project in blank amount of time." This is still what I think will happen and not to be for granted I am not in their discord or a patreon, they might actually be working on the update but are not telling anything about it because either they know they will get a backlash or they are ashamed to tell them that they have completed the second half of a single quest in 2-3 months.
So i assume the dev abandon the KOD completely?
I am nervous because i was hoping they would just wake up at some point and start putting in a better effort for the game. It sounds like they might just abandon the game entirely at this point
How am I supposed to trigger the bad end with Vehlis being a prisoner in the orc camp? I take her to the event but it just resolves the quest as normal.
You have to go back to an older save. Remember that an orc asked you questions about Vehlis a few patches ago? Basically screw up every answer intentionally and make Vehlis look as guilty as possible.
I'd be surprised if they did that.
I don't have inside information or even access to their discord either, but my guess is a fairly simple explanation: They got into trouble with the next quest already.
This guess is based on the few things we do know about their plans. The next quest is the conclusion of the Vehlis-bad end scenario. Two thing complicate this matter already.
First, this quest so far only had simplified and modular art and that always slowed down development without any great upside.
Second, well again, to get this outcome, you have to screw things up horribly a few patches ago and i'm not even sure if the dom route can even get this bad end (i may be wrong on this one, have to check later).
So Hreinn once again said that they are hoping for a shorter development time for this patch, but they still probably use the art style that needlessly drags it out. All this for a content that a lot of players have missed right away and a route that might just be a long dead-end. Because a dragged out dead end worked amazingly well the last time they did it for a Vehlis quest... (/sarcasm)
So what can they do to add content to everyone? Well, they could expand the training quest a bit, with more modular sketches dragging out the development... Or they could send Sabia back to the human tavern to gather a bit more information... with modular sketches dragging out the development again.
Again, i don't know what's going on in their discord, but i can't imagine Hreinn getting praised for the training quest. So they have to choose between not delivering anything to some of their player in the next patch at all, or delivering something disappointing after a needlessly extended time.
All of which could be avoided if they simply dropped the modular stlye and the new mechanics and just created a simple story patch with one or two good artwork, which would take a fraction of the time and effort.

Like I said I am not sure, it is just my speculation. The update might come out soon or we might hear from them soon, I don't know, as mentioned I don't have access to their discord nor am I a patreon, so don't take my word for granted.

Playing the Submissive route is one of the most uncomfortable and least pleasant experiences I've had to endure, it must be truly atrocious.
Instead of being a character that pleases everyone to let their guard down to manipulate them, we have a human carpet for everyone to walk on.
Not even the sex scenes are good, I understand that being submissive she can't refuse to have sex but I don't even persevere that she enjoys it enough to justify a warrior letting herself be defeated.

And on the contrary, the sub route was my favorite. But, not everything is perfect.
1) I have been hoping for a long time that they will rework the old events, or add new ones in those days when Sabia had not yet received her combat squad, etc. For example, to have the opportunity for her to continue working in a tent, or more events in a bar, or for Kira to dominate her, at least something. But there is little content, but they did not give the desired.
2) I fell out of love with this route after I realized that due to the fact that Sabiya is a sub, she cannot knock over the catgirl in any way, and she will have to become a temporary slave until the whole camp fucks her, roughly speaking. When such ultimatums are given by developers, it is always disappointing.
And now there is no favorite way, because with each update that comes out once a year at best, the content is getting worse and worse, in my opinion, there is no need to wait for a miracle.

G'day Strangers!
Here's the update:
Here's the update:
All that time, for one quest/ bad end, one that's not going to matter in the game overall afterwards?
